■SPARK PLUG
•The spark plug may gather carbon deposits on its firing end with reasonable use. Remove and inspect the spark plug every 25 hours and clean the electrodes as necessary with a wire brush. The spark gap should be adjusted to .025 in (0.6~0.7mm).
•Plug manufacturers recommend replacing the plug twice a year to avoid unexpected plug failure in a job.
REPLACEMENT PLUG IS A NGK CMR7H.
